Hi everyone! Today is always one of my favorite day in the 31 Day Challenge, Galaxy Nails! I love a design that you just can't mess up and that is exactly what galaxy nails are. I love the classic galaxy mani look, so let's check out my design.

Hi everyone! The prompt for the 31 Day Challenge today is Half Moons and I also decided to be inspired by a color! I know "Inspired by a Color" day is coming up, but I'm doing a different color for that day so I had to squeeze in some more orange love somewhere! Let's check out the mani!

Hi everyone! For my Delicate Print in the 31 Day Challenge, I decided to revisit my favorite brocade stamping plate from MoYou-London! I have a Doctor Who design that I have meant to do for awhile (ever since I bought this base polish) and I finally did it!

Hi everyone! For the Floral prompt in the 31 Day Challenge, I decided to revisit a design that I did in my very first 31 Day Challenge that I LOVED. Last time I did Monet Water Lilies for my art-inspired mani, but I thought I would do it for my floral one and I used all KBShimmer cremes in this look!

Hi everyone! I'm playing catch-up again so I will be posting several times today. For the Animal Print prompt in the 31 Day Challenge, I thought I had a great a super unique idea! Turns out, Emily from Nail Polish Society and I must share the same brain! Anyway, I still love the look so I did it anyway.

Hi everyone! Today I have Dreamland Lacquer's Fall offerings to share with you! There will be two mini collections releasing this month including the Outlander Collection with cozy fall shades, and the Halloween 2016 Collection with beautiful bright Halloween shades! Both of these collections release on September 19th at 2:00 PM CST for a 72 pre-order in the Dreamland Lacquer shop.

Hi everyone! Today I have a brand new edition to the Ladies of GLL series in which Great Lakes Lacquer creator Mariah is collaborating with each of her bloggers to create an inspired polish! This month's collaborator is Jenne from Polished Pathology (be sure to follow that link because she has a great round-up of all of the Polish Con exclusives). This polish will debut today at Polish Con in Chicago (if you are going I'm SO JEALOUS!) and then will be released on the Great Lakes Lacquer website on September 21st.

Hi everyone! Today I have four gorgeous new shades from Great Lakes Lacquer to share with you. The A Nude Awakening Collection was inspired by Mariah's love of coffee and disdain for mornings (I'm totally there with you on mornings...NOT a morning person). These are all gorgeous twists on neutral shades that are both work appropriate and fun! The A Nude Awakening Collection will debut at Polish Con on the September 17th and will be up in the Great Lakes Lacquer shop on September 21st.

Hi everyone! I'm still playing catch-up and here is the Stripes prompt from yesterday in the 31 Day Challenge. I've been seeing some amazing freehand stripes and I decided to be brave and give them a try in the spirit of stripe day! Let's see how I did.

Hi everyone! Today for the 31 Day Challenge, our inspiration is Dots. Now it may still be hot as Hades in my neck of the woods, but it is indeed September so it's time to start with a few fall-themed manis. This mani was inspired by some fall-ish shades! Let's check out my easy dot mani.

Hi everyone! I got a bit behind this weekend because I've had a cold AND I had to go out of town for a wedding, so I'm just getting to Gradient nails today in the 31 Day Challenge. I wanted something sort of neutral since I've been doing a lot of colors so far, so let's see what I came up with.

Hi everyone! Today the prompt is Rainbow in the 31 Day Challenge and I've used some amazing water decals in my design. I had the idea a while back to try out a paper punch on some water decals and see how it would work out. Let's take a look at my results!

Hi everyone! Today we are on to Metallic nails in the 31 Day Challenge, and I decided to use an old polish that is apparently right on with the current magnetic trend right now (plus a little stamping, of course!).

Wednesday, September 7, 2016

Hi everyone! Now that we are done with the colors of the rainbow, now we have moved on to Black and White for the 31 Day Challenge! For this design, I went for something classic and beautiful...all while using my favorite stamping plate!

Hi everyone! We are chugging right along with the 31 Day Challenge and we are completing the ROYGBIV portion of the challenge (we left out indigo), so Violet is what's on the menu today. Let's see what I came up with for the challenge!

Hi everyone! Today for the 31 Day Challenge the theme is Blue! I had a gorgeous blue duo from Polish My Life that look just perfect together, so I decided to use them for this prompt. I must add that I have ordered from Polish My Life several times and always with no issues at all. With my last order, Shaneka accidentally sent me the holo from this duo when I ordered the creme. I contacted her and she told me to keep the holo and she sent me the creme right away. Such fantastic customer service and a pleasure to deal with! She is a a stand-up businesswoman.

Hi everyone! It's day 4 of the 31 Day Challenge and today is one of my favorite colors...GREEN! Since I'm a green lover, I knew I had to use as many shades of green in my design as possible...and holo of course! Let's take a look at what I came up with.

Friday, September 2, 2016

Hi everyone! For day two of the 31 Day Challenge, the theme is Orange! Now ever since the Star Wars: The Force Awakens came out, I have wanted to do some nail art inspired by my new personal favorite droid, BB-8, but I've never have gotten around to it. What better day than orange day to pay homage to the cute little rolling droid!

Hi everyone! I've decided to jump on the crazy train and join in on the 31 Day Challenge! I've really felt blah lately and I need something to jump-start my creativity. Challenges always seem to inspire me, so I'm going for it! I don't know if I will be able to post every single day, but I'm going to do as many as I can. I'm excited to get started!

Hi everyone! If you haven't figured it out, this week is going to be Zoya week on the blog and I have a long overdue post to share with you, the Zoya Petals Collection. I have had these swatched for ages, but have totally neglected to post them. Luckily, Zoya keeps their collections available year-round so you can easily pick these up on their site and they are beautiful colors that can be worn anytime. Stay tuned because I will be sharing the other Summer Collection (Seashells) as well as the Fall Urban Grunge collections over the next few days!
